Title: Systems and methods for facilitating transactions
Inventor: SCOTT WALTER GUY
IPC: H04K1/00
Filed: 2004-07-09
Abstract: Figure 1, is a diagram of a marketplace (100) that supports limited conventional transactions. In marketplace (100), users (102A-102D) carry out a variety of electronic transactions over network (120). User (102A) interfaces with a terminal (104A) at a merchant store in a retail transaction. Terminal (104A) forwards information related to the user and/or transaction over network (120) to a bank (124) or credit card service (130) for approval. User (102B) interface with an automated teller machine (ATM)(104B). ATM(104B) communicates over network (120) to bank (124) or other institution to perform a banking transaction. User (102C) interfaces with a computer (104C). Computer (104C) carries out a transaction over network (120) with web server (125) to perform online banking, online retail or other e-commerce transactions. User (102D) interfaces with telephone (104D) to carry out a transaction over network (120). Telephone (104D) generally has more limited interface than computer (104C), but still can be enable a user to input and make selections through a voice prompt or keypad system to perform transactions such as obtaining account information.

Title: Mechanically opened ball seat and expandable ball seat
Inventor: PEDERSEN GERALD D
IPC: E21B34/06
Filed: 2003-09-26
Abstract: A method and apparatus for obstructing the passage of fluid within a fluid flow conduit and subsequently reconfiguring the tool to allow substantially full- bore passage therethrough. Pressure developed upstream of the obstruction can be utilized to operate pressure actuated tools such as liner hangers. Equipment used in subsequent wellbore operations such as drill pipe darts can pass undamaged through the opened port. In an embodiment, the flow through a tubular is obstructed by placing a ball on an expandable ball seat, developing a pressure differential across the ball seat, equalizing the pressure after the hydraulically actuated tool completes its function, and mechanically manipulating the drill string to open the expandable ball seat and allow the ball to pass through.
Patent CA-2556708-A1 (CA)
Title: Transmit diversity and spatial spreading for an ofdm-based multi-antenna communication system
Inventor: NANDA SANJIV
IPC: H04L1/06
Filed: 2005-02-18
Abstract: A multi-antenna transmitting entity transmits data to a single- or multi-antenna receiving entity using (1) a steered mode to direct the data transmission toward the receiving entity or (2) a pseudo-random transmit steering (PRTS) mode to randomize the effective channels observed by the data transmission across the subbands. The PRTS mode may be used to achieve transmit diversity or spatial spreading. For transmit diversity, the transmitting entity uses different pseudo-random steering vectors across the subbands but the same steering vector across an entire packet for each subband. The receiving entity does not need to have knowledge of the pseudo-random steering vectors or perform any special processing. For spatial spreading, the transmitting entity uses different pseudo-random steering vectors across the subbands and different steering vectors across the packet for each subband. Only the transmitting and receiving entities know the steering vectors used for data transmission.
